Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Eagles cashed the board's mistake on Bassa: D+.

The phones were a trap the Eagles kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Landing Bassa that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 32nd overall pick they get a moveable chess piece at tight end, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Landon Jackson in the 33rd pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Watts went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick96 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in pick 96 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at pick No. 130 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in No. 164 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick189 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Dorian Strong in No. 189, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick254 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
A quiet steal in the 254th overall pick: Marcus Yarns for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
